Southampton 2-1 Tottenham: Premier League – Three Key Players
By Erik Franzo
Josh Sims
It would be very difficult to find a Southampton fan that would have left Josh Sims out of this article. From the moment he was put into the game, he was electric with his energy, causing plenty of problems for the Spurs’ defence. Ralph Hasenhuttl surely took notice as well, as Southampton FC’s official site posted the comments from the manager below.
After this performance, one can legitimately question why this was his first senior appearance under Hasenhuttl? However, with Shane Long going off injured, and Charlie Austin’s effectiveness within the system in serious doubt, Saints’ fans need to be excited about seeing Sims play a little more often over the final eight matches.
